Stopping FOCA: EWTN TV w/ Gianna Jessen, Sister Nirmala, Archbishop Burke, among others(?)
11-8-2008 | Vanity

This is not a scheduled EWTN TV. There may not even be plans for it. But maybe their should be!!!

Catholics/Christians stopping F.O.C.A:

Gianna Jessen is an abortion survivor. She fought vigorously in the last election on the abortion issue.

"Blessed" Mother Teresa fought abortion when she was on earth, most powerfully with her 1994 National Prayer Breakfast speech. Her successor Sister Nirmala must equally share in that zeal to stop abortion.

Dr. Alveda King is the niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. She has had two abortions.

Archbishop Raymond "Leo" Burke now holds two positions in the Vatican.

What do all of these people have in common? They are all strongly opposed to abortion. They are pro-life.

The current Supreme Knight Carl A. Anderson, of the Knights of Columbus, could also be a guest.

There is yet another "named" personality that might be persuaded to do a TV show: former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Roger "the dodger" Staubach.

By getting people that would appeal to great diversity of Americans, it might be possible to help stop the F.O.C.A. law.

Finally, it would be possible to do a TV show on a suit filed by the unborn. Gianna Jessen, having survived an abortion, could be a spokesperson for the unborn. A person such as former US Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork might also be a guest on the show. Another recognized great legal mind (who understands how abortion is) could replace Mr. Robert Bork.

With the above guests, this could be a series of TV shows done in a week.

However, the time to act on this is short!

That is why the vanity post!!!

It might be possible to do some filming in India with Sister Nirmala, Gianna Jessen, and Dr. Alveda King about this issue.

Sister Nirmala could be introduced to both and be told their stories.

I am going to promote this idea to a number of my "connection", but I am curious to what you think...

People forget why Archbishop Raymond Leo Burke ex-communicated three Catholic pro-abortion politicians.

They forced Catholic hospitals to provide abortions.

The focus is a TV show with:

Gianna Jessen and Sister Nirmala. They should be talking about how Gianna was aborted. They should also talk about F.O.C.A

Other shows on F.O.C.A. could also have other people: Dr. Alveda King, Archbishop Burke of the Vatican, Supreme King Carl A. Anderson, etc.

An EWTN show with these famous Catholics of course would be great. But to reach a broader audience, how about a feature on Fox News (you could not get a whole show, but O’Reilly or Hannity might do a segment), bring in some experts, maybe a doctor, to explain to the vast number of idiot Americans who don’t know, just what abortion is, partial-birth, and post-birth infanticide, etc. Then have someone, maybe Judge Nepolitano, explain how FOCA is not only about the “right to choose” but endangers teens because most teens who go in for abortions have been raped or molested, it’s child abuse! FOCA would remove mandatory reporting laws for that, as well as parental consent, laws that require women to be given certain health info, etc.

That would also be the goal. If the EWTN TV shows could stir some controversy, maybe Fox News would pick it up.

Sister Nirmala has rarely, if ever given an interview. So that would be the attraction to Fox News...

The idea that Gianna Jessen could file a class action suit for the unborn should stir controversy...

Stir the kettle enough, and folks get interested...

The petition is great. But if you read Fight FOCA website, there are 109 sponsors in the House. The senate has a who's who of Senators on the left -- including Obama and Hillary.

Signing the petition is one step. Getting additional media attention is necessary. Fighting to get Christian TV/radio (which includes Catholic) to stop hammering this issue is necessary, in my opinion.

We have to put pressure on EWTN and other Christian TV to pick this up. If Dr. James Dobson would also start broadcasting this, it would be great...

We MUST fight FOCA with all our strength and courage or else the Lord will hold us responsible.

Speak up, Catholics! Stop the slaughter of the innocent!
